@emidln: It looks like you're siding out Snapcaster Mage in a lot of the common matchups. Might it be better to simply go -1 Snapcaster, +1 Duress in the maindeck or something along those lines? Just...

Hahah, damn. Good call.
Two questions. What's up with Confidant? I thought the general consensus is that he is bad. Also, don't you have issues with Thalia g1? The only way I can see of getting rid of her once she hits the...
This deck is pretty close to the storm deck 'Grinding Station.' I've played it a couple times and it is extremely strong, but I think it may be a little slow for the current metagame. Being able to...
Damn, looks pretty fake to me.
I for one loved that Belcher deck. Nice job!
I tried boarding out my wishes and some LEDs against blue, and it has been extremely solid for me. Burning wish is terrible against blue, and without it, LEDs aren't THAT good anyways. I'm not sure...
I guess I would argue that at the higher tables in events meta-gaming matters more. Sure, there are tons of random decks at a tournament, but if you look at the X-0 and X-1 tables, you'll see much...
This isn't really pimp, more weird/cool.

I opened a couple of Avacyn packs the other day and got some pretty miscut commons. I was stoked....
I am so confused.
Thanks for the link, Jaco. I love belcher reports.
Someone got 12th with Grinding Station at SCG Sacramento!

I'm glad this awesome deck finally caught on!
Unfortunately, Massacre cannot be cast with Gaddock Teeg in play, which is probably pretty significant.
I made a belcher simulator in Java a few months ago and managed to max out the turn one win-percentage. Unfortunately, I got busy with school and never released anything about it. I just started...
You list looks great, I'll have to test it out. Congrats on doing so well!
Bummer man. Did you end up Grapeshotting his creatures and him to buy a couple of turns?
I've heard of storm players doing this. I think Ari Lax ran 3 EtW over Pyroblast in the board.
I think he said that his is albino foil japanese.
Great work, as always Jona. Did you encounter any situations where that wishable duress would've come in handy?
I think I would go with Badlands, actually. You will really be wanting that second fetch-able black source.
I usually run 4 Probe and 4 SW in my lists. In some events I have played in, I've stole multiple g1s against blue players not knowing what I am playing. In all of those cases, Serum Power might have...
My list has 4 Street Wraith instead of Manamorphose, so I usually board them out for games 2 and 3. Manamorphose is the worst card in traditional 2c Belcher lists, so those are the first to go.
In...
Serum Power is extremely strong in Belcher. Many people dismiss it, but your 1st turn win % goes up drastically when you play it. I run 4 in my board, so as to not give away what deck I am playing...
I hear Cave-In is a pretty good wish target.
On another note, do you guys find yourselves BW into Past in Flames very often? It seems a pretty weak, but I haven't given it any testing.
